Domains

Within the energy currents and debris of the realms there exists pockets of matter and energy that have been gathered either through fate or force. Unmanaged these bubbles will float, grow, shrink, pop and form anew, all part of the natural interactions of the current in the spiral. It is in these safe pockets that life has thrived. Powerful beings/organizations often control these domains and if they are powerful enough, the domain may even be steered or anchored to a fixed point within the outer plane.

Domains on the rise within the Aether are generally considered to be Fae while ones falling are considered Fel. Domains dimensions can range in size internally from a single 5th dimensional thought, to a galaxy of stars and planets. 

"Many assign cultural value to these fucking domains. At the risk of sounding like a nerd , I am pretty confident that the only value these labels have are in probabilist directional descriptors of systemic movement in 5th dimensional space.

You are going to meet a lot of assholes out there that are going to assign value to these stupid labels but I gotta say after seeing what I have. There is no value in treating individuals one way or the other based on where they came from."

Inter-Domain Travel

In response to the last churn the Fae Court have locked down or destroyed most magical means of travel between domains. For the last 700 years travel and trade has been largely limited to the Aethernaughts who fly the dangerous and dynamic trade routes between domains. They weave through the storms and debris of The Spiral to connect us. Some domains have shut themselves from external entry and or hide within impassable zones. Others go as far to even prevent magical means of communication between domains.

For the powerful elites there are ways of getting around the magical barriers and systemic blockades. For the rest they must remain content with life in the dimensional pocket they currently live in or live vicariously through the various entertainment programs broadcast across The Spiral. 

Some domains are selective in who they allow connections with or connect through a 5th dimensional proximity that makes blockades of any kind impossible. Be sure to check what the social norms are when visiting new domains as they may be totally alien to your experience. 

" I have seen some fucked up stuff here. I think it comes with the job of saving the universe sometimes. But I just... I just can't let stuff slide. Not when I have the power to change things. 

But I should have known that there was more rot underneath the paradise. Especially when that first blood gate opened... I should have known a lot of things back then. I should have seen with clearer eyes"
